Pentagon 9-11 Memorial

This area on the west side of the Pentagon is where one of the planes from the 9/11/2001 Terrorist Attacks collided with the Pentagon. The memorial has wing-like benches pointed either towards the Pentagon wall (representing those killed in the plane) or away from the Pentagon wall (representing those killed in the Pentagon). Under these benches are small waterfalls. Each bench is a tribute to an individual who died in the attack. The benches are laid out from the youngest person to die to the oldest to die.
